This caller left a voice mail claiming to be a sergeant with DEA (Drug Enforcement Agency) suggesting I was a "regular" purchaser of drugs online. He had a severe accent and did leave the number. He had my name and correct gender indicating it's not a typical phishing scam, but it definitely is a scam of some kind! I do not owe creditors so it is not debt collection investigations. I do not purchase pharmaceuticals on line so that part reveals themselves as scamming something. I would not recommend returning any calls from 301-825-5012.
Happened to me today. Visit the DEA homepage and there is a number you can call listed at the bottom of the page to report this scam. NO DEA AGENT WILL TELL YOU THEY ARE COMING WITH A SEARCH WARRANT TO YOUR HOUSE. Also, the "sargeant" who called me has the same name of a Veteran DEA agent who committed suicide 2/27/2010.
Got the same call. DEA Enforcement stating I buy illegal items on line- said i was violating RICO act, smuggling , etc. WTH! Said he was going to send agents my house sith a supboena for search and arrest. I have no idea what he is talking about. I called my cellular provider and blocked the number. WOW
Same deal here. This is an ongoing scam - they will "let you off with a fine" of only $1500!! Then they will likely clean out your account. I called the f###ers back and ended by letting them know they were being recorded by the US Treasury Dept and they were under investigation for fraudulent schemes based upon collecting money fro the US coffers. The "Special Deputy in Charge" started screaming that I was dirsespecting a federal deputy, then hollerded, "You're going to JAIL," an then hung up. It was hysterical.
But what they are trying to do is not funny at all.
